Hi all,

I have a code that makes a loop into the row of my table, and adds en event for each row.
when I add an : alert("foo")

into my loop, the code works, for all 166 rows

when i remove the alert, the code is executed but not until the end of all rows, only a part of the rows (like 88/165). it seems really strange no ?

here is the exemple :

doesn't find and process all rows :
Code: 
for(i=1;i<theTab.rows.length;i++)      
{                                     
	theTab.rows[i].onmousedown=function(event){detectClick(event, this)}; 
	//alert("foo");
}
alert(i);


find and process all rows :
Code: 
for(i=1;i<theTab.rows.length;i++)      
{                                     
	theTab.rows[i].onmousedown=function(event){detectClick(event, this)}; 
	alert("foo");
}
alert(i);

I really don't understand. the particularity of my table is that it's filled with DOMXML and it's not a fixed table.

Any idea ?

Regards,


Elise

here is my code (I removed code that is not directly impacted by my problem) :
Code: 
<HTML>
<BODY id="body" style="BEHAVIOR: url(webservice.htc)" onload="initWebservices();DoMyLookup();return false;">
<form name="Form1" meTHod="post" id="Form1">
<script>
.....
function DoMyLookup() 
{
  	window.status = "waiting....";
	//some code to load the data from a WebServiceand get the result
	if (!result.error) 
	{
 		// stuff the result into an XML Document
  		document.all.XMLDataCases.loadXML(result.value);
  		window.status = "waiting..........";
  		setMouse('DataIslandGrid1');  	   
	}
 	window.status = "waiting............";
}

function setMouse(tabID)
{
	THeTab = document.getElementById(tabID);                                        
	oLasTRow = THeTab.rows[0];                                                      
	THeTab.style.cursor = 'default';                                               
	THeTab.onselectstart = function(){return false};   
	alert("data loaded");                           
	for(i=1;i<THeTab.rows.lengTH;i++)      
	{                                     
		THeTab.rows[i].onmousedown=function(event){detectClick(event, THis)}; 
	}
	alert(i);
						  
	window.status = "data loaded !";

It looks like someone did mass search & replace (all th/tr in code are uppercased) - and some property names are affected too (length became lengTH).
